[Accidental Voice/Written;Action for room and hallways.]

[modernholmes]

[When Conan first wakes up he isn't aware that anything is different until he pushes himself up into a seated position and gropes for his glasses. Not realizing that he needed to adjust for his suddenly much longer reach, he accidentally knocks his journal onto the floor as he overbalances and falls out of bed with a loud crash. After a stunned moment he sits back up and stares at himself in shock. He was in his real body.]

How? The last thing I remember...

[He cuts himself off in shock at his own deeper voice. His real voice. How many months had it been since he'd been able to say anything in it without needing a voice changer?

But... there was no time to marvel in this. Already he was pushing back his shock and realizing the problems he was about to have. He could not let anyone make any connections between Conan and himself. But at the same time, he knew there was no way he could simply hide until whatever this was wore off. There would be questions. Where Conan was. Who he was. The connection between them.

Reluctantly, Shinichi came to the conclusion that he could not hope to handle this himself. He needed to contact his allies and get the stories straight. Needed to figure out how to minimize the suspicions that might come from this.]

Something has happened and Conan needs to disappear. I need to talk to you all. Right away.
 [After speaking to all his allies Shinichi makes his way to the door and listens to it intently.  Was there anyone in the hallway?  He needed to get out of this room and down to the clinic without anyone noticing.  A new arrival arriving in Conan's room would be too suspicious.  Not hearing anyone, he eases the door open and slips out.]

[blue_sniper]

...I hope you know I can see that filter.

[modernholmes]

[And because Shinichi is still horribly off balance from the series of surprises this morning he is startled into responding verbally. In the voice of a teenager who was obviously not Conan.]

...What.

[blue_sniper]

I think the Castle messed up your filter. I can see it. [It's quite obvious that this is a loss, and well...what Conan actually is. Bucky is not actually that surprised.]

Oh, and happy belated birthday.

[modernholmes]

...I'm sorry, I think you have me confused for someone else.

[Belated attempt at a cover up? Go.]

[blue_sniper]

No, I don't think I do. So, is your name really Conan, or is it something else?

Oh, and I should warn you-I'm on a truth loss, so if you ask me any questions I'll answer truthfully.

[modernholmes]

I believe you've confused me with my distant relative. I've been told we look and sound very similar.

[Somehow Shinichi has managed to hastily draw on some of his acting skills. As pitiful as they were.]

Shinichi Kudo. I'm a high school detective.

[blue_sniper]

And why would a distant relative be... [Bucky sighs.] Fine, we'll play it your way.

Nice to meet you, Shinichi. James Buchanan Barnes. Just call me Bucky.

[ Acton ] 1/ .... :|

[loves_osaka]

[ Heiji snorts something that sounds like 'shut up Kudo.' before curling farther in a cocoon of blankets. Clearly he missed something very important. ]

or.. you know... Action. Spelled right.

[loves_osaka]

[ But wait. That wasn't Kudo's normal voice-or it was but-but it wasn't-it sounded more like-like- ]

[ He rolls over to see if he's maybe just still really tired-which could be the case. ]

[loves_osaka]

[ It was! Kudo was normal sized! ]

[modernholmes]

[....Did it work? He can't tell.]

Pleasure to meet you?

Done! \o/

[loves_osaka]

[ ... ]

[ Wait. How did that happen? ]

[blue_sniper]

Yes and no, since I already know you. [Don't ask questions. And no, it didn't work.] Just so you know it, I'm only humoring you right now, kid.

[modernholmes]

[Shinichi watches the reactions pass over Heiji's face with a dry expression on his own face.]

[modernholmes]

...I don't want to talk about this over the journals.

[He's giving up on that.]

[blue_sniper]

...I can totally understand that. [He wouldn't want to either.]

[modernholmes]

Or in public.

[ Action ]

[moonlightmagician]

[ Perhaps it's karma. It probably is. Kaito really shouldn't have been sneaking around in the hallways so early in the morning. What was he even doing anyway? No matter! All that matters right now is the fact that the moment the door opens Kaito is suddenly aware he was leaning against a door and now lost his balance and toppling backwards. ]

[ And you wanted to make a quiet getaway. ]

[blue_sniper]

[Bucky rolls his eyes at that.] Obviously. Listen, Shinichi, I won't tell anybody. You don't even have to give me the specifics if you don't want to.

[loves_osaka]

[ Heiji pushes himself up to a sitting position and stares incredulously at his friend as though trying to decide it was really him. Haibara-before she had left said that she forgot all her notes on the antidote so... what in the heck? ]

Good Mornin' Kudo...

Re: [ Action ]

[modernholmes]

[Of all the things Shinichi expected, having a certain familiar lookalike fall in his door and topple on top of him was not even on the list.]

[modernholmes]

For once that name is accurate.

[modernholmes]

...Why?

1/2

[moonlightmagician]

[ It's just one of those weird freak accidents because honestly he didn't know this was Tantei-kun's room. ]

Oww...

[blue_sniper]

[Good thing he was going to be honest about this anyway.] Because it doesn't really matter. I always suspected you were older than you look, and this just proves it. There's probably a story behind it, but I really don't need to know the details if you don't want to tell me.
